What-Can-U-Sa? or, Can I Have My Money Back?

Ol' Chick Fil-A bows to Chicago business pressures and 1) decides not to fund pro-sanctity-of-marriage groups, and 2) issues a pablum-y statement to mollify homosexual agitprop groups.Nothing surprises anymore. And of course a business' first rule is to be profitable. However, if this were the course of action, it would have been nice to make this public before convincing every marriage supporter and their brother to swell their coffers in the last couple of months. No, take the money of the gullible citizen desperate for any effort to stand athwart the tide of the cesspool, THEN, change course and please the sodomites. Mark Twain is rightly chuckling at lots of us today. He knew a rube when he saw one.

Nothing surprises in the Peoples Republic of Chicago, but it's surprising indeed to see this company roll over like it did. Voicing ones opinion about Traditional marriage, bringing out such hatred and threat that the company buckles. I guess in the end, money did talk. I'm sure I'm not the only one to feels duped, having stood in line in solidarity. Rube indeed.

But we Catholics don't have much room to talk ... just look to the USCCB for similar examples in play.

Since it is Chicago, the land of lawless politics, we should not assume it was just for financial reasons that they bowed down. Everybody does remember what happened in California to businesses that supported pro-marriage right? Their lives were threatened. People vandalized their businesses which included total destruction in some cases. No patrons would dare go to any of these businesses. I have family in California, so heard it first hand.

A Day That Will Live in Glory

Pray for the Four Cardinals: Burke, Caffarra, Meiser and Brandmuller

“You are the ones who are happy; you who remain within the Church by your Faith, who hold firmly to the foundations of the Faith which has come down to you from Apostolic Tradition. And if an execrable jealousy has tried to shake it on a number of occasions, it has not succeeded. They are the ones who have broken away from it in the present crisis. No one, ever, will prevail against your Faith, beloved Brothers. And we believe that God will give us our churches back some day."
